ho does not love a head of pretty
hair? Some women think it is a gift
of nature and envy their more fortu
nate sisters. If your hair is not fluffy
soft and lustrous; is falling out'
streaked, faded, brittle, or full of dan-'
druff. and if the scalp itches, do not
think it must always be that way, for
pretty hair is only a matter of care
and proper nourishment of the hair ;
roots. Hair Is something like a p.ant
—if neglected it soon withers and dies
while with a little attention it keens
fresh and beautiful. |
Parisian Sage is a scientific prepa- '
ration that supplies just the elements
needed to Invigorate the hair roots
and stimulate the hair to grow long
thick, fluffy, soft and lustrous. It re- I
moves dandruff with one application i
and quickly stops Itching head and •
falling hair. It is the ideal hair tonic
and scalp treatment for men, women
and children—contains nothing injuri
ous and is delicately perfumed.
H. C. Kennedy or any drug or toilet
counter can supply you with Parisian
Sage—it is inexpensive. You cannot
be disappointed with this delightful
and helpful hair tonic, for the first
few days' use will give the hair the'
beauty and charm of youth.—Adver

| Chicago. 111., May 21. The Rev.
jJohn Timothy Stone, of Chicago, mod

| States here to-day with a gavel made
| from the )>ulpit of George Whitfield,

i died in Xewburyport, Mass., in 1765.
;The gnvel is small and light and its
mallet-shaped head Is hound by gold
| bands. It was presented to Dr. Stone
I last year at Atlanta, when he was

; a leading topic.
j The general assembly is composed

! the basis of the number of ministers.
; This gives a strong representation to
,'the "home mission" fields. States like
| Washington having several times more
i representatives than the city of Phila
■ delphia. though with fewer church
1 members. The interests of the home
j missions therefore were expected to
| figure prominently in the choice of a
'moderator and in the acts of the as-
Isemblv.

The assembly was opened with prayer
and after a report of the committee
lon arrngements recess was to be fol
| lowed by the election of a moderator.

BLAMES CITY PEOPLE FOR
HIGH PRIICE OP EGGS
A contributor to the current issue of
farm and Fireside writes in part as
follows:
"The city people are themselves to
blame for the hight price of eggs. The
New York Times Annalist shows that
clearly. They have grown fond of
eggs and eat more of them than for
merly. The population of seven great
cities of the United States has in
creased 30.9 per cent, in ten years,
but their consumption of eggs has in
creased 73 per cent. It is stated that
the city person who ate four eggs a
dozen years ago now eats live. So eggs
have risen in price faster than any
thing else.
"If the cities are eating nearly twice
as many eggs as formerly, and we are
producing only a lifth more, clearly
the country people are going without
eggs so as to sell them to the cities.
What more can we do? It may well
be said that we might keep more hens.
Well, that isn't a bad idea, and we
commend it to all farmers who can
see their way to increasing their
flocks. And if the flocks now kept
were all cared for as they should be,
and placed under the command of
cockerels hatched from the eggs of
hens with records as first-class layers,
conditions would improve."

profitable. Thirty pigs were diveded
into three lots, the heaviest eaters in
one lot, and the others graded accord
ing to their capacity for consuming
feed.
"A hundred hogs like the heaviest
eaters, at the rate of gain made and
present prices, would make a profit of
$2!>7.65, or almost exactly $3 a head.
A hundred like the poorest feeders
would have made a profit of $115.65 or
only a little more than a dollar a
head. They were evenly graded as to
size and sex. If there is this great
difference between the heavy-eating
hogs and the light eaters—and most
hog-growers will agree with the gen
eral proposition—it would seem that
breeders might well devote themselves
to breeding appetite in hogs, instead
of color of fancy points. If the ap
petite makes the profits, breed appe
tite."
AX AMBIGUOUS ANSWER
Mr. and Mrs. Murphy were fre
quently in court. Sometimes Murphy
complained of his wife, at other times
Mrs. Murphy had her husband arrest
ed for abuse, and on still other occa
sions neighbors had them both in
court for disturbing the peace with
their brawls. The judge was becom
ing rather tired of having them berore
him.
"This is the sixth time one or the
other of yott has been up before me for
fighting," he declared, out of pa*
tienee; "now, tell me truthfully, can
not you two live happily without
fighting?"
"No, yer Honor," replied Mrs. Mur
phy; "not happily." Warren Mason
